TREE PLANTING
TREES!!! The New York Audubon society needs volunteers on November 8th from 10 am to 4pm at 71 west 23rd street in Staten Island NY. Volunteers will be provided with lunch (yummie) work gear (oo-la-la) and a special token of their appreciation (mysterious..oo). STATEN ISLAND that's mighty far from yonkers you say. Indeed it is, but fear not key clubbers we can all take the subway together! (to the possible chagrin of NYC commuters..). Anywho more details pertaining to the location and exact time of our meeting point (before we take the subway) will be posted as soon as possible. In the meantime enjoy this poem by joyce kilmer
I THINK that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree.
A tree whose hungry mouth is prest
Against the sweet earth's flowing breast;
A tree that looks at God all day, 5
And lifts her leafy arms to pray;
A tree that may in summer wear
A nest of robins in her hair;
Upon whose bosom snow has lain;
Who intimately lives with rain. 10
Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.

PARADE OF PETS!
yep its a set deal, i spoke to Ms. Palladino (the very nice woman organizing the event) today and she is delighted to have YHS students volunteer on sunday. The event will be from 1 - 4 at Webb Field in Richard Presser park, Central Ave NY. However, all students who are planning to volunteer must have their parents sign a letter saying that Student Advocacy, The Hartsdale Rotary Club, and the town of Greenburgh are not responsible for the well being of the student. You must write the letter and present it on sunday, or your parents can fill out a waiver at the volunteer registration table when they drop you off. Either way, you must have parental consent. In my opinion it would be easier to write the letter at home and have your parents sign it. The following people have told me that they are going: Ashwin, Kaitlyn, Steven, Wanda & Xiomara. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to call me at (914) 409-7262. Again, I am sorry i cannot go. HAVE FUN =]
